I totally agree with you. I thought "The Boys"
was a bad idea to debut with. Some of the Korean exchange students here
said they find it really embarassing that they debuted with that, but I
guess they did it because of Teddy Riley.

It did seem like they were more comfortable on Kelly's show. DL is
old school so I think he didnt try as much with them, he probably had
the notion that if they were big enough to come on his show they should
be comfortable. I dont really watch his show so I dont really care about
him

I know. I read lots of comments a few hours before they were going to perform and a lot of fans were saying how they would simply 'die' of embarrassment if SNSD debuted with 'The Boys' in real. But then again, their first album is The Boys and obviously, the title song would be the one they'd be promoting; however bad. I like their other songs but this one was And good for you if you don't watch or have not seen any of DL episodes. He's beyond ridiculous, a big racist, and just gross

@ Jahnvi - We finally made it to the next one after such a long time Now doubt we'll rock it. Hopefully more people will participate

Yeah I noticed that too, but being the PR machine that SME is they have had a very smart strategy in promoting them. I do wonder though whether this interest in them will last. Like you, I think there were better songs they could have debuted with. They probably should have named the album soething else and had a different title track.

I dont think they show his show here, and I wouldnt go out of my way to watch it. From what Ive heard about him he is pervy and gross.

BTW, do any of you happen to have good quality links for SuJu's Full House? The ones I've managed to find are very poor quality. Unable to make out anything on the screen and the subtitles are hardly readable.
